My life is very much like that Rihanna song, you know the one… that’s all I do these days. If you follow me on IG, you know I’ve been to 6 Nigerian cities in less than 1 week and the body needs a reset. The Q2 adult public holiday is closer than you think! Cloooooser. I am excited about that.

Got in at 1am this morning, been trying to sleep… It’s a long weekend. This is how I am feeling. Thanks to hotel wi-fi and all that, let me share with you my recent YouTube finds!

This video has me all up in my feels. Have you ever wondered if your love is strong enough? If your partner has an accident that leaves him/her in a state of total dependence on you… Just watch it. Andra Day did good with M. Night Shyamalan for this inspirational video for Rise Up.

This video was a social experiment that I really enjoyed watching. I get so uncomfortable sometimes when I have to maintain eye contact for too long, but I’ll try this with my lover. Enjoy this video for Rachel Platten’s Better Place.

I first discovered Yuna through Sabirah’s blog and I was tripped. So when this video came out I was so stoked… Yuna is so gorgeous and I am so in love with her voice. A major plus is that she has Usher of all dreams and fantasies in it. Enjoy Yuna’s video for Crush.

Guess who’s on YouTube? Me! Me! Me! The lovely (very lovely) Sheila Edikan-Udofia of Single in Gidi and the producer-director-camerawoman extraordinaire Shirley Urhobo-Enebong had me on the 101 purple chair! If you haven’t seen it yet, do check it out, leave a comment and share… Click here.

Welcome to the month of love. (Imagine that I just said that in my sexy OAP voice – #sidegoals. YES. #SideGoals because I have my main goals and being an OAP will just be, you know, a side goal).

I love LOVE. No, really. The expression of it, the highs and lows of totally giving of yourself to others… Love is a beautiful thing (It’s Don Jazzy Again!)

Today, we will be talking about love songs! Thanks Berry Dakara for the berry awesome tip.

In no particular order, here are my songs for the season! Make sure you share yours with me in the comment section…

Michael Buble’s cover of Stevie Wonder’s – You and I.

Whitney Houston – Your Love is my love

Innocent Tuface Idibia – African Queen. No, I am not joking. I know TuBaba is the patron saint of p**ya***y , but I love this song. Actually makes me feel like a special thang! I am a special woman.

Willie Nelson ft. Dolly Parton – From Here to the Moon and Back. This is such a forever song, I love it. The words have so much weight and I plan to use them in my vows someday.

The Colour of Love – BoyzIIMen

Oooh, I always enjoy this one. I was recently listening to this song and I imagined myself on a cold, cold night in front of a fireplace, holding on to a hairbrush (that I have no hairbrush worthy hair does not count) dancing as my beloved watched on. *giggles* No, I don’t giggle. That is not the point. The point is that I enjoy this song.

John Legend – All of Me – This song eh? John Legend just came and floored all of us with this song.

Ed Sheeran – Thinking Out Loud

OMI – Cheerleader

I love this one too! Especially, the Pentatonix Cover – It makes me feel really giddy! I just want to pull out my pop-poms and cheer the lover’s name to the world! *wink*

Enrique Iglesias – Hero

*sniffs* I don’t want to talk about this song.

Bruno Mars – Just The Way You Are

Beyonce – XO

Bryan Adams – (Everything I Do) I Do It For You

Hezekiah Walker – I Need You To Survive

I know this is a gospel song and I am sure that it is okay to share this with your loved ones. xoxo.

Emeli Sande – Breaking The Law

This is my love jam!

Justin Timberlake – Mirror

I know this is a shortlist of the thousands of love songs I love. Will you share with me what your favourite love songs are?

P.S. – I entered a giveaway to attend the Anita Brows Beauty Basic Beat Class (these words just made me smile – like AQuadrupuleBC – yah) and I won. So, I’ll be attending this class with Black Bae and I can’t wait to tell you guys about it.
